What to do about "failing men?"
I may have posted this before. Can't remember...

As shown in the above graph, the changes in... nah, it speaks for itself.
Even in the posh suburbs, over-privileged boys seem to be doing rather poorly in school.
Within the Black community, women are doing a LOT better professionally than the men, to the point that many Black women complain that they can't find an acceptable man to marry.

Just pick your favorite.
I thought I did. I picked Massively expand the military since I figured that would cause enough butthurt then I saw other choices that could cause equal or greater resentment but it was already too late.
That will create a lot of jobs, particularly for the contractors who fleece the government.
Why not just do public works projects, so that at least the members of the public can see some benefit derive from the spending?
In the provided list public works projects seem like a win..win scenario to me...
But..
Here's the thing..
There is world wide over population and a rape of resources of mother earth...
Men failing is a natural thing..as discussed and described in John Calhoun's behavioral sink..experiment with rats..back in the 60's...
as what naturally happens..when a loss of social roles occur in any species of social animal..where
subsistence is still 'freely' offered..
What happens is the males start to groom themselves incessantly..as precisely what we see in the technology
capital of South Korea..and Japan..and lose interest in intercourse with the opposite sex..
and fail to defend against the aggressor..
And then the females become the aggressor..with the so called 'mean girl' phenomenon fighting amongst themselves..
for sport of living...
Well..our common ancestor the rodent rat..about 75 million years ago..
still lives deep within our genes..
Humans inherently are peaceful loving beings..that get along well in small social groups..sharing sex and all of that ..with the village raising the children..with all the aunties and uncles and all of that...SOLID SOCIAL ROLES..ARE THE WAY OF LIFE..OF THE SMALL VILLAGE..
But in effect the PRESENT overall GLOBAL complex languageS ..collective intelligence..and complex cultures..are AFFECTING THE EARTH..as a growing virus...
Failing men is..well..
The cure for this virus...
Ya cannot fool mother nature..
No matter what language ya use..collective intelligence..or complex culture ya..use..as tool to attempt to tame her...or dominate her...
But don't take my word for it..
John Calhoun is a pretty cool dude..scientist.. and all of that..
Folks said he was crazy for predicting this with his little experiment...
but OUT of the BOX thinkers...
as usuAlly..
'RULE'..THE LARGER PICTURE...OF LIFE...
SO HERE'S TO THE BEAUTIFUL BOYS OF LIFE..THE FAILING ONES..
NOW..THAT might lead to pleasing mother nature..;)in the longest of runs...
LIFE...All of it..every dam species..and inanimate..material...S

The conclusions drawn from this experiment were that when all available space is taken and all social roles filled, competition and the stresses experienced by the individuals will result in a total breakdown in complex social behaviors, ultimately resulting in the demise of the population.
Calhoun saw the fate of the population of mice as a metaphor for the potential fate of man. He characterized the social breakdown as a “second death”, with reference to the “second death” mentioned in the Biblical book of Revelation 2:11 [1] His study has been cited by writers such as Bill Perkins as a warning of the dangers of the living in an "increasingly crowded and impersonal world".[2]
And i did my own little research project into this..last year..per link below..in not a poetic free verse style..of writing..with my scientist creativITY hat on...
So it seems..POTENTIALLY.. that 'rising rates' of so called higher functioning autism..may be another canary in the coal mine..
for the 'beautiful ones'..in human form...

and here is another link to a similar research project of mine..into this overall phenomena of epigenetic ..and neuroplastic influence..of the human being..in just one generation..of evolution of culture..and biology..together as life...

ya cannot reasonably figure out what GOD IS until ya more FULLY understand HUman...
IN 'just' my opinion of course....

Well, Mr. Calhoun was quite smart. That does seem to be about where we are right now.
But, with regard to Mr. Calhoun's reference to Revelations: isn't Heaven itself regarded as a place where all of your needs are taken care of for you, and where there is nothing to do but to sing hymns praising Yahweh and Jesus? No courtship or fighting, there. But, we never die, either. Simply a stress-free eternity.
haha! heaven is here..! NOWMOREFOREVERFORMORENOW!
it's only cultural illusion that keeps us from IT..like silly revelations and SOME of that..bible crap...
And the prison of it is here now..
Culture that is..
not heaven..
and as long as ya never consider dying..
like 'that' cat in 'that' science project..YA know the one i'm talking
about as you and me are smart and all of that...
ya never die in the NOW..that's all that counts..
NOW..
It's simple math...
NOW IS ALL THERE IS..
AND IF YA DON'T DIE OR THINK ABOUT DYING NOW..
YA ONLY LIVE...
BUT MY CAT COULD OF TOLD YA THAT..IF HE IS HANDICAPPED WITH COMPLEX..
HUMAN language..collective intelligence..complex culture and
ALL OF that...
common sense!..IN
STEAD..
the kind my cat has..
that is what's lacking in the heaven that IS..
AS CONVERSELY for folks like my cat..
that can TRULY SEE IT...
NOW..
It took me a long time..over 5 decades..to fully gain..
the intelligence..of my
cat..
the common sense..of
heaven now..and only living
NOW!

Regarding the men who have never "learned the value and the culture of work", and who are failing specifically as men, by failing to provide for their families: expanding the military, and doing public works projects, would provide a lot of employment for men, but these would be primarily low-wage jobs. Not really the archaic "bring home the bacon" kind of jobs. The higher-payer jobs are going to go the the better-educated women.
Moreover, a lot of the boys who do well in school are unaggressive, nerdy betas, who will be ill-equipped to deal with and compete against the domineering, aggressive alpha females in the workplace. The women are going to bully them and push them out of the workforce all together.
The woman in the video above says that she has a 5-year-old child (presumably fathered by a sexy alpha male with an apparently desirable genetic makeup), and she is looking for a man (most likely a beta who is at least somewhat sexually desireable, but who has a good income) who will help to raise her child. But, such men are in short supply, particularly within the Black community. And, the supply is only going to get shorter, across all communities.
We are in the midst of a rather dramatic demographic shift. The Patriachy no longer exists. Every man for himself. Every woman for herself. No-one can count on anyone or anything.
Here is an update from Mr. Ryan

But, a lot of women who have the notion that they somehow need a man are just going to have to get over it and take care of themselves.
.
I don't know about the military but investment in public works projects wouldn't just create low wage jobs. There would be a need for skilled labor requiring trade school education such as welders and crane operators etc. There would also be a need for college educated civil engineers, foresters and probably other things I don't know about (geologists?)
50 years ago welfare robbed the head of minority households of his economic function, and made him superfluous. Cloward and Piven made this assessment back in the 70’s. Now ‘My Brothers Keeper’ aims to rob him of his role as mentor and role model. I cannot understand why minority males aren’t shouting out from the rooftops “We will not be marginalized!”

If you want more guys to work, give them more of an incentive to work by increasing the minimum wage. If you don't earn more from working than you do from going on welfare, then there's really no point in working.
As well, legalizing and regulating prostitution would be a good thing to do, as people are going to sell their bodies for sex anyway, so they may as well do it in a legal and safe manner.

That will also give the guys an incentive to work: something to spend their money on.

Yeah, nasty wasn't it? The civil rights era brought them out of oppression for a moment and LBJ along with later Jackson and Sharpton, Alinsky, etc. attempted to put them right back under it and were successful in too many cases.
I was talking to a gentleman yesterday who brought up the connection between Herbert Spencer and the Fabian Socialists. Essentially he said the aims were the same - ie. Plutocracy raids the chattle, just that the Fabians had it more in mind to 'kill them with kindness' and play games by encouraging them to seal their own fate. Creating an economic incentive for minority fathers to not be in their childrens lives was just such a cultural death sentence.
